Patience is a skill and like
with any skill, it needs to be practiced.
I have often thought that I was a patient person, though I believe that
I have mistaken my lack of desire for patience.
I possess the ability to be patient on the outside, though my mind is
often overtaken with anxiety.
I have mentioned on numerous
occasions that I have been stricken with doubt and anxiety. These types of feelings are not something
that coincide with patience. If I truly
had the skill of patience, I would be able to soothe my fears and keep
negativity at bay. If I truly had
mastered the skill of patience I would not be preoccupied with thoughts of
“WHAT MAY BE.” Instead I would be able
to think about WHAT IS.
Living in the present, living
with purpose, living today in order to make your tomorrow’s better is what I
believe takes patience. In today’s world
we are so often given answers quickly.
If we have a problem with our
television or internet, there is a call center technician available to help us
almost immediately. If we are bored we
can find instant entertainment with television and the internet. If we are lonely we can call our friends and
family. If we are hungry we go to a fast
food drive thru.
Everything in our society is
trying to be faster, because most people lack patience. We want it all, and we want it immediately.
I am learning to be
patient. I know I need to practice keep
exercising patience. I know that the
decisions and actions I make today will shape my future. If I have patience I will be able to wait for
my dreams to become a reality. I can’t
force The Universe to work on my timeframe.
The only thing I can do is continue to work for the future and practice
patience.
To The Universe
Love Brandy
